It was a plot by Gargimel. She was a spy, but she was overcome by the love of the Smurfs and changed from her evil ways. omg

born in 80.... i used to bring my Big Bird record player into school and play Bon Jovi in recess (1st grade / Livin' on a prayer). yea thats right, i had all the ladies dancing around me. then i got the full metal Voltron set and used to bring that to school... all the girls would beg to be the Pink one. /sigh those were the good ol' days, when a few tunes and a few toys got all the ladies swooning.

I was born in '87 but my sister was always big on 80's stuff, even into the 90's, so I remember some of that.
And I've seen Donnie Darko more times than I can count so I know all about Smurfette.
